Nami of Wakanda Goes To The || Other Side

022

"We're all in Wakanda now" I announced, proudly to the remaining members of Steve Rogers' team with me. Steve and Bucky only. I had dropped off Clint and Scott to their families, while Wanda, Sam and Natasha were now in Scotland— where they would be hiding.

   "It's—"

   "Beautiful?" Helmut finished Bucky's sentence. Oh, I've forgotten he was here. All three men rush to the pilot's seat where I was seated, to get a better look at my kingdom. That's right. I was still queen.

   "We'll be getting you a new arm," I promise Bucky as I led the Royal Talon to where we can land, right on top of Shuri's lab. "And Captain, you will be meeting the person in charge of making Bucky walk the streets more confidently"

   "That is if he'll be able to walk without getting recognized" Steve sighed sadly.

   "I meant the part where he can no longer be controlled" I correct him.

   "But you have him around" Steve glances over to Helmut in concern.

   "As much as I think his plan on destroying the Avengers was very much a job of a genius'..." I start, placing a hand on my chin. "I believe Helmut Zemo will be no match for Wakanda's technology, left alone how to access a phone— or air crafts to escape. So Mr Rogers, I'll make sure you will be able to trust Barnes and Zemo under my watch"

   Steve nodded gratefully, "How long do you think Buck will have to stay?" Bucky looks up to know the answer to the question as well.

   "He can be figured like a puzzle within a week, no pressure on the people who will be working on you" I reply, "but I'd be willing to have Mr Barnes stay longer until everyone on Captain America's side have their names cleared. Although, I can not take in any more outsiders other than Zemo and Barnes"

   "What will you keep him for?" Bucky asks, pointing to Helmut with a glare.

   "He'll be marked as a disgrace to humanity, branded actually" I casually shrugged, earning a subtle gulp from Helmut. "Although I'll make sure to be able to use him, we can't have his brilliant mind wasted"

   "Do Wakandans usually keep their captured enemies?" Steve asks, genuinely curious.

   "We brand and keep them, never use their potential. I want Helmut to prove to me that he's work to keep alive" I stare over at the mentioned man, "the other tribes would want him dead, fallen down a cliff or buried alive in the show for the loss of our king. But of course— my reign would never have started without his death" something tugs at my lips.

   The three men stare at me in disbelief.
